I think that everyone that helped with that project would be pretty mad if they heard this. It's definitely not Russia that did this, it's people working against Russian censorship that did this.

Also, a lot of the community behind the pirateb4y and 4nnas-archive and the-3ye helped build these projects. The sheer amount of resources that the archivist is contributing is insane by any normal (non-fortune100) standard.
